WTF!!! rap in the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME!!! this is trully and uterly disgusting. If they want to be in a hall of fame, make the “rap hall of fame”. is it because their black and if their not nominated the rock and roll hall of fame will be called raceist. I mean they havent nominated anyone who trully diserves it till this year that being the stooges, kiss, and genisses. Wheres acdc, motley crue, and iron maiden. thank you and maybe next year we’ll be introducing country…NOT IN HELL!!!

After Madonna was elected to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame it should be renamed “The Rock and Roll of whoever wants to be in it. Next Barney and Elmo will be nominated. The tragedy is rock bands such as Moody Blues, Chicago, Three Dog Night and Alice Cooper are still waiting for their right to be in the Hall of Fame.

I have been waiting for KISS to get nominated for YEARS!!! It’s about time! I can not understand how they have been snubbed for all these years, when they are 100 times better, and have done much more for the genre, and the rock community than many artists who have made it in before them. They SO DESERVE to be there!!!

Lighten up, people. Everyone knows that the RRHOF is an eerie blend of sales award and cronie politics. Otherwise, a guy like Lonnie Mack, who was the first virtuoso rock guitarist, and THE original blues-rock guitarist, would have been “in” years ago.
